I got to play with Lacy Sunshine's Rodeo Queen Rory and she is colored with Promarkers. The image is from the All about Rory Coloring Set #14. Normally I don't color whole scenes as I like to fussy cut my images. This was challenging for me. I like how it turned out. Still learning to color as I never have followed a class in coloring. I notice do the difference of coloring a few years back and now. Still in progress but that's so much fun. It's like a big adventure.

I colored this beauty using a fineliner for all the small black parts and the rest of the image is colored with cool grey (for the white parts), black, ice grey 5 & 3, pinks, browns and skin tones.
Had decided to make a tag. They always come in handy. The tag is made from black leather look cardstock. Used products; white gelpen, white vinyl lace, black and white tape, filmstrip die cut, crocheted flower, gem, made a little pin, and white feathers. I love how it turned out.

The From the Heart Stamps image is called "Harvest Medley" and it's colored with Promarkers. I used some scrap pieces of dp's and distressed the edges. The image is distressed with walnut stain distress ink. The leaves die cuts are from joy crafts.

The image is called "Surprised Birdbrain" and it's colored with Promarkers. I used some dp that is pretty old, but never ever used it and 2 strips of scrap paper. Like how it turned out. Didn't add a sentiment because this image can be used for more than one occasion.

The image is called "Snowman Hugs" and it's colored with Spectrum Noir Markers. Behind the image I adhered 3 strips of scrap paper with dots and stripes for the twist. Also the scarfs work for the twist of the challenge.

We're half way the month already and that means a new challenge at CCC Digi Creations. Our sponsor this fortnight is Cute as a Button. The challenge is themed "Use Die Cuts"

I got to play with this cute image called "Valentine LOVE Banner" and I colored her with Promarkers. I didn't use this image for a Valentine's card but for an upcoming birthday from my younger sister who I love dearly. The background papers I used are designed by Tracy Wray and it's from the With Love pack.
I used 3 die cuts (Happy Birtday banner, Hearts banner and the flying heart) the 3 little hearts are made with punches.

Feel free to join the challenge for a chance to win 2 digi's from our sponsor.

The image is called "Martini Sassy" and I colored it with Spectrum Noir and Promarkers. For the skin tones I found a great color combo with my Promarkers, so I will stay at that for the moment. Just started playing with my Spectrum Noir markers so still searching for the right colors. But it's fun playing with them.

Hope to welcome you in our FB Group. Where you can also join our monthly progressive challenge with a free image and lots of prizes to win.

Happy to announce that I am part of the New Release Team at Stamps by Julia Spiri as of this month. So excited to be able to work with her gorgeous images.

Here's my first card using one of the 6 new images from the "Venice Collection".
This image is called "The secrets of Venice" and she is colored with Promarkers. I seem to turn to this color combo more often. I got a new paper block and saw the feathers and had to use it. Also just bought some feathers so that came in handy too. The fan behind the image is made with a half circle out of a piece of scrap paper.

This cute image is called "Cozy Kittens" and I colored it with my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers. First time I used them. Love how the color. Maybe even better than my Promarkers. I think I will combine my markers and use them both as alcohol markers can be combined. I used a lovely paw print embossing folder (Crafts Too). I love this folder. I inked it with Versa Color (38 Sky Blue).

SSD's first Facebook Progressive Challenge is started. Feel free to join the FB Group and ask for this image.

This image is called "Stroke of Midnight" and it's an old discontinued image. I colored it with Promarkers and made a star shaped card. I made a champagne bottle added some silver star die cuts and a cork sentiment to finish it.

I got to play with this beauty called "80s New Wave Punk Girl" and I colored her with Promarkers. The card base is red linen cardstock. I found this awesome background paper somewhere on the internet and had to use it. I reused a piece of corrugated paper from a package of cookies and added some lace an a strip of scrap cardstock.
